Saltydog is a funk jam Improvisational exploration that takes the audience & band on a journey through their playfully crafted folk driven tunes inspired by the likes of everyone from The Talking Heads, The Band, those classic country and jam band staples along with everyone in between.

The band spawned on the banks of Duluth’s ice covered stones by brothers Jacob and Owen Mahon. This midwestern psychedelic cowboy review features Calvin (Calzone) Lund, Lefty Johnson, Gavin St. Clair, and Sam Deters.

The group released its third album “Runnin’ Again” earlier this year.

Tapers notes: The Saltydog set was definitely one of the more unique ones I've seen them play, some new songs, some songs I've never heard them play before, and a conga line led by Jacob at the end that went out the front of the building and came back in on the other side. Overall, it was a really great night, and one that reminds you why live music is so important.
